About the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI8X110SCA
Delivering 25.1 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting stainless-steel mini cylinder handles compact actuation. The Ø8 mm bore uses an M5x0.8 port and a 4 mm piston rod. Its riveted round-body construction pairs a stainless barrel and rod to resist mild corrosion in damp or washdown settings. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb stroke-end impact.
Because the 25.1 N rating is a theoretical maximum, plan for a safe working load of about 15 N of real work at 0.5 MPa. Vertically, this translates to lifting roughly 1.3 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches, while the CA rear pivot cover suits clevis mounting.

Where the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI8X110SCA Is Used
Micro-clip insertion
Pushes lightweight wire clips into PCB assemblies with a safe 15 N working force, preventing damage to delicate board traces.
Film deflector routing
Pivots via its CA clevis to guide thin packaging film webs on small vertical form-fill-seal machines.
Lab tube ejection
Ejects plastic test tubes from stainless-steel testing carousels, where the corrosion-resistant build tolerates frequent chemical wipe-downs.
Is the Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI8X110SCA the Right Cylinder?
As the smallest bore in the MI family, there is no smaller option; if 25.1 N push at 0.5 MPa is insufficient, step up to the Ø10 bore which provides 39.3 N. This SKU includes the -S magnet for position sensing and the CA pivot back cover. For side-load stability over the 110 mm stroke, ensure the rod guides are aligned to prevent bending on the 4 mm rod.
Air pressure alone will not hold this cylinder in place if the valve is centred or air is lost, as the piston will drift. The TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end rather than acting as a brake. To maintain a vertical load, specify an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MI8~12 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI8X110SCA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it provides 25.1 N push and 18.8 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 35.2 N push and 26.4 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 5.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5x0.8.
Yes, the Ø8 mm body uses standard ISO 6432 mounting dimensions for easy bracket interchange. This model includes a piston magnet (-S) so it is fully compatible with CMSG, DMSG and EMSG reed or electronic switches.
